tuation, they should cultivate Ripple well, making her stand firmly on the side of the alliance instead of special treatment. After all, she has talent, but being suppressed will only push Ripple towa...This time, there was no need for ripples to transmit commands. The other captains already understood why the command center had previously prevented them from expending too much of their forces. It turns out they were waiting for this!
Strike while the iron is hot. This is not a time to hold back, otherwise we'll just wait for them to recover and then be crushed by them.
"All out attack!"
"Attack!"
"Target enemy ships, fire everything!"
This time, the ten warships did not retreat. Before it was just skirmishes, now is the time they show their true strength.
And the Oktovian side was quite dumbfounded. How could their flagship just self-destruct, and even hit their own people You'd say that's spooky, wouldn't you
By the time the 718th reinforcements arrived at the first line of defense via spatial jump, the Okotevsians had just begun to react and organize a counter-attack.
Although his main fleet was crippled by the self-destruction, he lost half of his warships. However, the remaining half, still over thirty ships, could still break through the defenses together.
But the arrival of reinforcements from the 718th Fleet shattered the enemy's dreams. A fierce breakout battle began, but ended abruptly.
Oktoversians attacking the XZ9 defense line were utterly defeated, this time they truly fled in disarray.
After returning to the warship with the remaining communication soldiers, Hewlett immediately went to see Ripple.
"Reporting, sir. Lieutenant Hewlett completed his mission under your escort."
"You worked hard. Were there any casualties"
"That's part of it."
When it comes to this point, Hewlett's mood becomes a little down.
Luckily, with Doudou's protection, otherwise, before we could rendezvous with the communication spacecraft from headquarters, our entire army would have been wiped out.
Where is Doudou
Ripple asked.
"Dou Dou should be coming with the reinforcements."
As soon as Hewlett's voice fell, Drew led a colonel-ranking officer into the control room.
"Colonel Shao, this is Major Melvin Lyman, here to support us. He's from the 718th Operations Command."
De Ru smiled and introduced the two people.
This time, they managed to hold the line and casualties were within an acceptable range. This was something unexpected for several of the captains. The chief contributor was undoubtedly Lieutenant He Lianyi, so he was happy to introduce the two to her.
"Hello, Commander Melvin."
Lian Yi immediately bowed in respect.
"Hello, I heard that you commanded this battle. You held back the enemy at minimal cost and waited for our reinforcements to arrive. You did very well."
Melvin praised without reservation.
"Thank you, sir, for your praise. It is my duty."
"Ripple immediately replied and then changed the subject."
Commander Sabir was more seriously injured and needs to return to the rear for treatment.
"I know, it's already being arranged. I will take all the wounded officers and soldiers with me. Before a new commander arrives, you will be the main commander of the frontline. I will leave you a command ship."
Melvin stated directly.
"Yes!"
The ripples responded instantly. The senior, three grades above her, simply obeyed orders.
"Okay, good work! I estimate the battle with the Octarians is nearing its end. Soon you'll all be able to return to the Alliance."
Nevertheless, Melvin still offered words of encouragement.
"Yes! I wonder if my strange plant, Doddo, came back with me"
Ripple blinked her eyes and asked.
"I'm back, aboard the command ship I left for you."
Marvin smiled and said.
The exotic plant was very clever. After escorting the messenger to safety, it immediately transformed into an ordinary flower and stuck itself in a vase. They tried all sorts of things to coax a reaction from it, but nothing worked.
But when they received the order to reinforce, they followed him onto the battleship. When they learned that the command ship was assigned to the frontline defense, they waited in the command room.
"Dodo has caused you all trouble."
Ripple pursed her lips and smiled.
"No trouble, your chimera is very clever."
"Dodo is a mutant flower that I cultivated. I'm an orphan, so when I have nothing to do, I talk to Dodo. That's why she understands me."
The ripples curved in whimsical swirls.
Melvin smiled and nodded, then moved on to the next topic.
"We received a report that you used the warship's systems to infiltrate the Octovian's database and downloaded some data."
"Yes, I have already instructed my deputy to store it separately. Sir, you can copy it at any time, or take the storage device directly."
The ripples spoke immediately.
"Great, this will be very helpful for us to understand the Oktovians. I'm going to take the storage unit back with me."
Melvin said solemnly.
"Sir, because we were using Captain Drake's warship as a temporary command post at the time, the storage is on that ship."
Ripple finished speaking and turned her gaze to Dru.
Drew immediately nodded and then arranged for people to unload the storage.
All the important things have been arranged. Ripples, together with Liang Qian, Qingluan, and An Mengmeng, went to the newly equipped command ship. Although it was small, they finally had their own territory.
Dodo has been busy making flower arrangements. When she saw her owner, she immediately climbed up to greet him.
Ripple touched her own wrist and chuckled, transmitting a voice message:
"Thank you for your hard work this time."
"Master, I was seriously injured this time."
Doudou began to whine and complain.
"The Octarvissians' weapons are very powerful, they shattered all my leaves! It took me so long to grow them. And the roots too!"
"I understand. After this mission is complete, I'll let you cultivate in the jadeite vein for a while to make up for your losses and perhaps even advance a level or two, how about that"
Ripples is not a black-hearted boss, he definitely wants to give his adopted plants some benefits.
Thank you, master!
Dodo was now happy. She felt that after absorbing and refining this energy, she could attack the Heavenly Transformation Tribulation.
Thanks to her contributions, Ripples also gained the attention of the higher command. Her reputation spread across the front lines. After all, she took charge under the serious injury of the main commander and proved herself capable. All her predictions were accurate, and she formulated corresponding countermeasures, defending the first line of defense and turning the tide of a losing battle. Even Commander Sabir might not have done better.
Mu Xiang and Hunter, who were on the same spaceship as Ripple, were the first to get the news. After all, they were both on the XZ9 defense line. The two lamented that different people had different fates. Although they were both on the 718th Regiment's defensive positions, the other person could already independently command battles, while they were still doing the work of transmitting orders.
Thomas and Shiqi, who were initially skeptical of Lianyi, were proven wrong. Afterward, when they encountered Lianyi at the military headquarters, they practically revolved around her.
Teacher Rand was the last to hear the news, after all, he wasn't on the front lines. However, he still had his own information channels. Looking at Ripple's battle record, a smile couldn't help but spread across his face.
Kouki and Xinghe only got the news three days after Rand. The two met in the virtual space of Xingwang, both a little excited. After all, this was their good friend, it really gave them face.
Look, this is what real power is!
Kouji tilted his head and said.
"That's not your ability."fierce. I wonder who would dare to marry her in the future."Jin Yuanqing muttered."People have parents to worry about them, so it's not your place to gossip here."After Zheng Ran closed the file, he c...
